Service Held For Round Rock Father, Daughter Killed In Wreck Caused By Drag Racers
The two were killed Oct. 29 when a red sports car crashed into a van that rolled over them while they waited to cross the street.
ROUND ROCK, TX -- Family and friends gathered Saturday to say their goodbyes to a father and daughter killed last month when a van rolled over them while two motorists were drag racing.
Fox 7 News spoke to several friends of the deceased, remembering Tyrone Price, 43, as a loyal friend who always seemed to have a smile on his face and his daughter, 12-year-old Cheyenne, as the winsome honors student who was excited about learning Spanish in her quest to be bilingual.
The two were killed the afternoon of Oct. 29 after a van and a red Ford Mustang crashed at the intersection of 1701 A.W. Grimes Blvd. and Gattis School Road. Police said the driver of the red Ford Mustang had been racing with a motorist in a blue Ford Mustang when the collision occurred.
